Palestinian armed group in Gaza admits to coordination with Israel
GAZA CITY: The head of a Palestinian armed group opposed to Hamas and accused of aid looting in the Gaza Strip confirmed Sunday it was coordinating with the Israeli military in an interview with public Abu Shabab said his group, known as the Popular Forces, was able to move freely in zones under Israeli military control and communicated their operations beforehand.'We keep them informed, but we carry out the military actions on our own,' he said in an interview with Makan, Israel's Arabic-language public radio Shabab also said his group had received 'logistical and financial support from several parties,' without mentioning Israel directly.'There are things we can't talk about publicly.'Last month, the Israeli authorities admitted to providing support to armed Palestinian groups opposed to Hamas in Gaza, without naming them, though local media reports identified the group in question as Abu Shabab's.'It is only good, it is saving lives of Israeli soldiers,' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the member and ex-defense minister Avigdor Lieberman, however, accused the government of 'giving weapons to a group of criminals and felons.'The European Council on Foreign Relations think tank describes Abu Shabab as the head of a criminal gang in the Rafah region of southern Gaza that has been suspected of looting aid Shabab did not address the accusation in his radio interview, and stressed that the only goal of his militia was to defeat Hamas and to provide an alternative for governance in the Gaza Strip.'We do not belong to any ideology or political organization,' Abu Shabab said in the interview, adding that he was seeking to eradicate Hamas's 'injustice' and 'corruption.''We will continue to fight, no matter the bloodshed,' he added. 'Right now, Hamas is dying. They know their end is near.'Abu Shabab has drawn the ire of Hamas, which has ruled over the Gaza Strip since 2007. On Wednesday, a Hamas military court gave him 10 days to turn himself in to be tried for treason, among other Sunday, a coalition of Palestinian clans accused the Popular Forces of 'shamelessly collaborating with the enemy.''They are rejected by all our people,' the coalition said in a statement.'We will show no mercy to them or to anyone who follows in their footsteps by aiding the occupation. They will be treated as they deserve to be: traitors and collaborators.'

UKMTO: Ship Attacked in Red Sea off Yemen with Gunfire, Rocket-propelled Grenades
A ship came under attack Sunday in the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen by armed men firing guns and launching rocket-propelled grenades, a group overseen by the British military said. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which comes as tensions remain high in the Middle East over the Israel-Hamas war and after the Iran-Israel war and airstrikes by the United States targeting Iranian nuclear sites. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center (UKMTO) said that an armed security team on the ship had returned fire and that the 'situation is ongoing.' 'Authorities are investigating,' it said, The AP news reported. Yemen's Houthi have been launching missile and drone attacks against commercial and military ships in the region in what the group's leadership has described as an effort to end Israel's offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Between November 2023 and January 2025, the Houthis targeted more than 100 merchant vessels with missiles and drones, sinking two of them and killing four sailors. That has greatly reduced the flow of trade through the Red Sea corridor, which typically sees $1 trillion of goods move through it annually. The Houthis paused attacks in a self-imposed ceasefire until the US launched a broad assault against them in mid-March. That ended weeks later and the Houthis haven't attacked a vessel, though they have continued occasional missile attacks targeting Israel.
